Dancing Drum Assembly

What a treat! Central Manor Elementary students enjoyed learning about drumming music from around the world this week in an amazing “Dancing Drum” assembly. During this interactive assembly, our students became the stars of the show as they learned about music and culture in Africa, the Caribbean, and South America. Everyone in the audience experienced the excitement of playing rhythms, following along, and clapping to the beat. Due to the generosity of the Penn Manor Education Foundation, all elementary students in our district were able to take part in and enjoy this show. Thank you so much for supporting our school and students.
Ag in the Classroom
November 15, 2024
Central Manor 3rd grade students are hard at work learning about Lancaster County agriculture. They recently completed their Ag in the classroom project. Last week members of our community visited with students in their classrooms. Mr. Harnish presented information about dairy farming. The Breneman family spoke about fruits and vegetables that are grown on our local farms. Manor FFA high school students came with two goats and the Frey family brought a baby pig for students to see when learning about hog farming. This week students visited the Harnish dairy farm and were able to see the milking process. Thank you to all our community members who visited and presented about Lancaster County farming.

CM Fun Run

Central Manor Fun Run event was a huge success! We exceeded our goal of $20,000. Thank you parents, families and friends for supporting our school.
CM Family Time
September 27, 2024
A family can be described as a group of people, children and adults, functioning together as a unit to support one another and encourage each other to be the best person you can be. Our new school wide initiative to help build a sense of community is the creation of OUR CM FAMILIES. How do our CM families work? Each student was randomly assigned a ‘family.’ A staff member is in charge of a family. This staff member is the family leader. Families will come together and meet at the end of each month to focus on our character education traits. The goal is to build a sense of belonging and community within our school. Later this year, our families will join together with other families and form a neighborhood for special activities. Our first family meeting was September 25th. Ask your child about their family leader? Did they have fun meeting new friends during their family time?
